EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning full-length group portrait, titled "Portraits of the Tokugawa Rulers" by Tsukioka Yoshitoshi, dates back to the 1870s and offers a captivating glimpse into Japan's rich history. The image, which is now housed at the Los Angeles County Museum of Art (LACMA), depicts a lineage of Tokugawa shoguns and daimyos (feudal lords) from the 16th to the 19th centuries. The portrait is presented in a panoramic, letterbox format, showcasing each figure in their traditional Japanese attire. The clothing, which ranges from the elegant kimonos worn by the women to the ornate armor and headdresses of the men, is a testament to the intricate and colorful designs of the Meiji Era (1868-1912). The oldest figure in the portrait is Ieyasu Tokugawa, the founder of the Tokugawa shogunate in 1603. He is depicted in his formal attire, complete with a long, flowing kimono and a ceremonial sword at his side. The elderly Matsudaira Takechiyo, who served as the last shogun of the Edo Bakufu (feudal government) before the Meiji Restoration, is also featured in the portrait. The portrait is a masterful example of the color woodblock print technique, which was a popular art form in Japan during the Edo Period (1603-1868). The intricate details of the calligraphy and the bold, vibrant colors used in the print are a testament to the skill and artistry of Tsukioka Yoshitoshi. The portrait serves as an important reminder of Japan's feudal past and the powerful dynasty that ruled the country for over 250 years. It is a valuable piece of heritage art that continues to captivate and inspire audiences around the world.
